After we factor out the inline data write procedure from ext4_da_write_end(), we don't need to start journal handle for the cases of both buffer overwrite and append-write. If we need to update i_disksize, mark_inode_dirty() do start handle and update inode buffer. So we could just remove all the journal handle codes in the delalloc write procedure. After this patch, we could get a lot of performance improvement. Below is the Unixbench comparison data test on my machine with 'Intel Xeon Gold 5120' CPU and nvme SSD backend.
